…#1250) ## Description [ dbt_docs_dir is None ] directly triggers the [ dbt_docs_net_set_up.html ] page via the cosmos plugin. I had a hard time figuring out why my dbt docs weren't hosting properly considering I had (incorrectly) tried setting up the dbt_docs_dir variable via the Airflow UI. Once I added the environment variable to my Dockerfile, the dbt Docs showed correctly in the airflow UI. I had to inspect the source code for the plugin to find out that cosmos was not correctly seeing the environment variables I had set up. Adding a note that the "dbt_docs_dir was not found" would make this error page much more helpful from a debugging standpoint for me. ## Related Issue(s) Related to #1245: Make it easier for end-users to create a DAG for creating/hosting dbt docs Related to #1139: Write blog post dbt docs in Airflow with Cosmos ## Breaking Change? This is my first time creating a PR on a public github, but I think this is as low impact as you can get :) ## Checklist - [NA ] I have made corresponding changes to the documentation (if required) - [ ] I have added tests that prove my fix is effective or that my feature works I don't know how to test this :( Just trying to save others some time if they have the same problem I had with correctly hosting dbt docs.

Hi, @tatiana. I'm helping the Cosmos team manage their backlog and am marking this issue as stale. You've proposed writing a blog post about how Cosmos can host dbt docs, inspired by @dwreeves' recent implementation. This post aims to enhance visibility on this feature and may cover topics like selecting an object store and the process of generating and hosting dbt docs in the Airflow UI. The main acceptance criterion is the publication of the blog post. Could you please let us know if this issue is still relevant to the latest version of the Cosmos repository? If it is, feel free to comment here to keep it open. Otherwise, you can close the issue yourself, or it will be automatically closed in 7 days. Thank you! |
